I was transiting from Bengaluru, where I train and live full-time now, to Birmingham in the UK to compete in the All England Championships. The last few hours have been extremely tense. We could hear the sounds of interceptions overhead and a few hours later there was an explosion very close to where we were holed up at Dubai airport. My coach was barely about 100 metres away from where it happened and had to quickly move out of the area. Experiencing something like this in such close quarters truly shakes you," Sindhu said in the video.
